Climbing in Red Rocks after heavy rain can permanently damage the rock! MORE INFO >>>

The sandstone in Red Rocks is fragile and is very easily damaged when it is wet. Holds rip off and climbs have been and will continue to be permanently damaged due to climbers not respecting this phenomenon. After a heavy storm the rock will remain wet, sometimes for several days. PLEASE DO NOT CLIMB IN RED ROCKS during or after rain. A good rule of thumb is that if the ground near your climb is at all damp (and not powdery dry sand), then do not climb. There are many alternatives (limestone, granite, basalt, and plastic) nearby.

Description

These two low lying boulders offer a number of good short warm up problems and some longer traverse lines. Nothing is steep but the crimps help to warmup the fingers for the harder lines a little farther along the trail.

Getting There

Walk along the trail from the parking lot. As the trail swings right head towards the large cluster of boulders. These boulders are the first you come too.
